now on bbc news, borisjohnson: departing downing street, looking back at borisjohnson�*s time in numberom brexit to the coronavirus pandemic, partygate and the russian invasion of ukraine. a warning that this programme contains flashing images. six weeks ago, a typhoon fighterjet took off from an raf base in lincolnshire. its co—pilot just announced he was about to become britain's ex—prime minister. after three happy years in the cockpit, and after performing some pretty difficult — if not astonishing — feats, i am now going to hand over the controls, seamlessly, to someone else. i don't know who. boris johnson believes in the great man theory of history, and he thinks he is that great man, like his hero, winston churchill. churchill, the guy made the most incredible series of mistakes, his early career was studied with disasters of one kind or another, but he always came back from them, and he always struck by what he believed. applause. whenjohnson became prime minister three years ago, churchill's grandson, sir nicholas soames, his friend and fellow etonian, told me of the text he h

"you'll be remembered as a prime minister with energy, vision, determination and humour. there was never a dull moment as a minister in your government, and i will be forever grateful to have been given the chance to be part of it." i just suddenly realised, it's glaring — i said "upmost", not "utmost". you want your generals to be optimistic and upbeat. there's nothing worse than serving under somebody who is convinced that we're going to lose. boris was always convinced, whether it was covid, ukraine, the economy or anything else, that we were always going to win — always — always going to win, and that's an infectious leadership quality. and do you think we haven't seen the last of him? yeah, i don't think we have — i don't think we will ever not see the last — or see the last of borisjohnso

"action this day" — a phrase borrowed from winston churchill. liz truss then set out her key objectives. as prime minister, i will pursue three early priorities. firstly, i will get britain working again. i have a bold plan to grow the economy through tax cuts and reform. i will cut taxes to reward hard work and boost business—led growth and investment. next i will take action this week to deal with energy bills and to secure our future energy supply. thirdly, i will make sure that people can get doctor's appointments and the nhs services they need. we will put our health service on a firm footing. and with a nod to the weather, bo

party members have until 5pm to choose either liz truss or rishi sunak to succeed borisjohnson — thell be announced on monday before they take over as prime minister on tuesday. it's been an often bitter contest, lasting almost two months. whoever wins faces an agenda that includes a cost of living crisis and soaring energy bills. our political correspondent helen catt reports. good evening, thank you. it's fantastic to be here. for weeks, liz truss and rishi sunak have toured the country. good evening, it's fantastic to be here. here in darlington... it's fantastic to be here... here, in eastbourne. racking up miles, and, they hope, votes from conservative party members. i think liz truss is the right candidate for the job, - with a bold economic plan. i hope rishi will make a comeback. between them they've made dozens of policy pledges. what i will do from day one is reduce taxes. i'm the candidate in this contest you can say the nhs will be safe on monday we'll find out which of them will have to deliver on their promises. liz truss is the favourite but it's a grim picture waiting

this contest is happening because conservative mps no longer believed that borisjohnson should be ind one of the things that contributed to that was his handling of covid rule—breaking in downing street. despite stepping down as prime minister, he still faces an inquiry from a committee of mps into whether he misled parliament with what he said about that. today, a leading lawyer has issued advice commissioned by the prime minister saying the proposed process is fundamentally flawed. lord pannick said a decision by the committee, backed by its own lawyer, that it doesn't need proof mrjohnson intended to mislead would devalue the currency of contempt and would be likely to have a chilling effect on ministerial comments in the house. there's not going to be any chilling effect, absolute nonsense. the only thing i'd like to stress is wouldn't it be nice if ministers were a bit careful about telling the truth when they came to the house of commons? downing street is getting ready for a change of occupier. one thing is certain — there will be no quiet settling in for the new prime ministe
